Dec. 25 is not only Christmas but also the start of Chanukah, occurring only 4 times since 1900. Both are festivals of light: Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus, the light of the world for Christians;Chanukah, the Jewish Festival of Lights. Happy Christmas & Chanukah S'meach (a joyful Chanukah)

Pleased (& relieved) to have joined exodus from Twitter and made the journey to BlueSky. This is my first post and I simply want to share my life's work: fostering better relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims. This photo (from recent Woolf Institute conference) says it all.
